Each year there are dozens of reported cases of these majestic marine animals either becoming tangled in fishing gear or stranded on a beach. When these unfortunate incidents occur it becomes a life and death situation and time is of the essence. Whale Rescue is a half hour documentary that follows members of the Marine Animal Response Society (MARS) as they respond to marine animals in distress. This group responds to calls from every corner of the Maritimes and co-ordinates the rescue effort with Government agencies, fisherman, and local volunteers. They also teach marine biology students about how to protect Atlantic Ocean's largest marine creatures so that they'll hopefully still be here for future generations to appreciate.
